Using weak liquid chlorine

[R1NLP]

Hi everyone,

To start the season I've been using liquid chlorine that I didn't end up using last year. What I've found so far is that I need to add approximately 2oz over what the TFP App recommends to raise my FC to the desired level.

Am I more at risk for growth in the pool if I take this approach? So far the water has been ok but I lose a lot of FC during the day.

Thanks!

The bleach degrades over time. If you found how much you need to add the FC you need, use it up.

FC loss is due to UV and use of the pool. I assume you have 30 ppm CYA in the water.

Thanks for the response! The most recent CYA test showed 40ppm.
